Amber Pennington '20 Recruiting Profile

When I was nine years old, I started my golf career on the Mid Hudson Junior Tour. Playing competitive golf at a young age has really helped me cultivate my knowledge of the game and taught me important life lessons like how to treat other people with respect and how to act with integrity. As I get older and the tournaments get bigger, these fundamentals and many others are still very applicable and playing golf at such a young age has helped me think about life through a wider perspective. 

Playing high level competitive golf in college has been a goal of mine for a very long time because I am very passionate about competitive golf and I want to do something I love while going through the college experience. I want golf to be a major part of my future whether it be competing at the highest level or applying my degree in the Sciences to develop and advance the game.
